): Aedeagus equal to half length of abdomen to as long as abdomen, straight or possessing slight dorsal curve basally. Parameres with basal portions (basimere) fused to one another and medio-ventral strut of median lobe, forming rigid cylinder, dorsum covering ventrum side except near base; gradually attenuate basally, apex moderately rounded to subacute; apical portions (telomere) slender, separated dorsally as a movable condylite with digitate base and articulate to medio-ventral strut of median lobe, bearing one major subapical seta, apex narrowly rounded; full paramere complex subparallel throughout. Median lobe (centerpiece) broad, lateral struts slightly arcuate at base, otherwise straight, not reaching paramere base, apex usually moderately acuminate, exceeding apex of parameres. Basal piece small, weakly sclerotized, subquadrate.
